The World Health Organization has urged nations to keep up their efforts against the COVID disease.
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on Wednesday said; “We have never been in a better position to end the pandemic.
“We are not there yet, but the end is in sight.”
Newly reported cases of the disease, which has killed millions and infected 606 million last week fell to the lowest level since March 2020, Tedros said.
“If we don’t take this opportunity now, we run the risk of more variants, more deaths, more disruption, and more uncertainty.
“These policy briefs are an urgent call for governments to take a hard look at their policies, and strengthen them for COVID-19 and future pathogens with pandemic potential."
He also urged nations to vaccinate 100 percent of their high-risk groups and keep testing for the virus.
